Camel to Defend Crown
Marvin Camel, sidelined with an eye injury just recently declared "okay" by doctors, will defend his World Boxing Council cruiserweight crown on November 25, according to Elmer Boyce, Camel's manager.
His opponent will be 22-year-old Carlos 'Sugar" DeLeon of Puerto Rico, the WBC's top-ranked contender for the cruiser-weight title. Their match is scheduled to take place just before the Sugar Ray Leonard - Roberto Duran rematch on November 25 in New Orleans' Super Bowl.
DeLeon has a reported record of 20-2-1 (in mostly light heavyweight bouts). Camel, seven years older than his future opponent, has compiled a 35-2-2 record.
Camel's purse for the fight is said to be $90,000, which is a little more than he received for both his bouts with Yugoslavia's Mate Parlov; whom he fought to win the new cruiserweight title. Camel is the first-ever to hold the new division's title. He's also the first Confederated Salish and Kootenai tribal member to become a world class champion.
